Hong Kong’s Ocean Terminal port has become a tourist hotspot featuring world-class hotels, restaurants and shopping, and the Kik Tak Cruise Terminal is a newer port located in Victoria Harbor. When it’s time to sightsee, both ports have nearby train transportation and plenty of taxis available.
Head to the top of the Peak Tower for a panoramic view of all of Hong Kong, then shop the Temple Street Night Market. Take a day trip to Macau or for travelers who have been to Hong Kong previously might want to take a tour to Lantau Island to visit to the Po Lin Monastery to see the huge Tian Tan Buddha.
Whichever ship you decide on you can choose from a refreshing variety of pools and whirlpools - each heated to just the right temperature. Queen Victoria offers two spacious outdoor pools as well as a hydrotherapy pool in her spa.
Hue, once the capital of Vietnam, is renowned for its rich history and well-preserved heritage, epitomized by the Imperial City, a vast complex of palaces, temples, walls, and gates. The city's tranquil Perfume River adds a picturesque quality, with traditional dragon boats offering leisurely tours. Visitors are also drawn to the Thien Mu Pagoda, one of the oldest and most significant religious structures in the area.
Neighboring Da Nang is a stark contrast with its dynamic growth and modern attractions like the Dragon Bridge, which breathes fire and water each weekend night. Da Nang’s coastline, including the renowned My Khe Beach, is ideal for relaxation or watersports, while the Marble Mountains present a blend of natural beauty and spiritual significance.
The Chan May port is about an hour from the center of Da Nang, and some travelers pass through Hoi An from there. The Da Nang cruise port is minimally equipped, but there are some basic open-air market stalls with jewellery, clothes, and other Vietnamese souvenirs available for travellers to purchase.
A day at sea offers a world of experiences, all tailored to your pace and preferences. Enjoy a refreshing dip in one of the heated pools or take in expansive ocean views with a few laps of Promenade Deck. Relax at the Mareel® Wellness & Beauty spa, with rejuvenating treatments inspired by the ocean. Partake in a guided gin tasting or attend a classical concert.
Indulge in gourmet meals at the grand Britannia Restaurant, sip champagne at sunset or enjoy a cocktail by the pool. Choose from an array of entertainment options, including stage shows, live bands, and late-night dancing. Play a round of paddle tennis, table tennis, golf putting, and shuffleboard. Younger guests will also stay entertained at one of four dedicated children’s clubs, ensuring fun for the whole family.
Over three decades have passed since the Vietnam War ended with the fall of Saigon. Today, the name of this bustling metropolis on the Mekong River is Ho Chi Minh City. Yet, the essence of the city, remains unchanged.
The air is filled with the cries of street hawkers and honking horns. Bicycles, motorbikes and cars fly down the boulevards at dizzying speeds. And everywhere, friendly faces and warm greetings meet you. Some popular activities while in port include riding a local pedicab through the bustling streets; visiting the vibrant markets, Chinatown and the fascinating Cu Chi tunnels.
Phu My serves as the starting point for excursions to Ho Chi Minh City, where you can explore vibrant markets, colonial architecture, and sites significant to Vietnam’s modern history, such as the War Remnants Museum and the Cu Chi Tunnels. Alternatively, the nearby Ba Ria offers a more subdued experience with traditional Vietnamese life, scenic countryside, and local markets, presenting a contrast to the urban intensity just a short drive away.
It couldn't be easier to meet people on board. The ship's social host ensures that guests need never feel out of place, enabling solo travellers to make connections at specially hosted coffee gatherings and dinner tables, and also a range of daytime activities. Indeed, before your invitation to the 'Welcome Cocktail Party' arrives, there's every chance you'll already have met the perfect company to share in the excitement.
